Ms Sparks queried what it means to register her interest and also queried what type of information the form should contain. As she is a Clerk to a Parish Council, she also wanted to know how to submit the views of the Parish Council, but also how individual Councillors could submit their own individual views.
Advice given
In order to register as an interested party, you must submit a relevant representation which should include a summary of what you agree and/or disagree with in the application, what you consider the main issues to be, and their impact. A brief list of points is all that is really required. If a form is being submitted on behalf of an organisation like a Parish Council, it must have the Parish Council's name on it and be clear that it has come from the Parish Council and reflects their views. If however it is being submitted by an individual with their own views, the form will need to have the individuals name on it, rather than the Parish Council's to avoid any confusion about whose views are being expressed.
